  • First try to burn the iso to a DVD or pendrive and start your installation. If you get ant error, we are here to help. Posting the whole process might be a little tiring for most of us. Sorry. – Raphael Jun 17 '14 at 09:06

Windows 8 will be installed with UEFI Mode. To boot from linux, you need to change it to legacy mode in BIOS.

To get BIOS Settings:

Windows+c -> Click on settings -> Change PC Settings -> General -> Advanced Startup -> Restart Now -> Troubleshoot -> UEFI Firmware settings -> Restart

If u want to boot to windows u need to boot from UEFI mode, boot from legacy mode for linux.

Hope it helps.
